DOI: 10.1016/j.jasrep.2019.102021
Abstract: Abstract Understanding the illumination systems used by Paleolithic groups in caves gives us essential information about the Paleo-speleological capabilities of our ancestors and their activities in dark spaces. In this paper, we present a multianalytical… read more here.

Biological Control of Phototrophic Biofilms in a Show Cave: The Case of Nerja Cave
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2020 at "Applied Sciences"
DOI: 10.3390/app10103448
Abstract: Cyanobacteria and microalgae are usually found in speleothems, rocks and walls of show caves exposed to artificial lighting. These microorganisms develop as biofilms coating the mineral surfaces and producing aesthetic, physical and chemical deterioration. A… read more here.
